I just purchased Advantix and am about to use it on him for the first time

I was using Frontline for a while, but I noticed fleas on my dog pretty often. I called frontline and did some reasearch. Found out that Forntline can take up to a day to kill the fleas and it DOES NOT repell fleas like advantix does.

My only concern is that Advantix is so powerful he might have a bad reaction to it

Anyone use Advantix on a dog 5 lbs or under?

I did
They are finding that fleas and ticks in a lot of areas are becoming immune to frointline. You still have to give heartwarm medicine when on Advantix.
